5 out of 5 stars Not for Dummies, a good intro on the subject of psychology   February 1, 2005

Having an interest in psychology, mainly the treatment of anxiety and depression, I picked this book up. The only other book on psychology I had read was my college textbook (which was actually a pretty darn good book too). Anyways, don't let the unfortunate title 'For Dummies' mislead you. This book was a very good, very readable, and most importantly enjoyable initiation into the topic of psychology I think anyone could find. The subject is treated with respect, explored in adequate depth and when finished leaves the reader not only with a better understanding of what psychology is about, but also with a hunger to learn more. Outstanding book and highly recommended.

I bought this book as a handy suplement to my introduction to psychology textbook. The book is great, though not as detailed as a textbook, it explains terms and definitions in plain english. I love this book.

My son asked me to find him an intro book to psycology. This was it. It is written in the format of all the other "For Dummies" books. It has alot of good info in it.
